2017 is an exciting time for the Philippines E-Commerce scene as active discussions are now happening for e-commerce industry players to work on cross-border e-commerce. This will allow Filipino businesses to sell internationally with local marketplaces as enablers. 

In 2016, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) launch an aggressive e-commerce advocacy after its release of the Philippines E-Commerce Roadmap (2016-2020). Pushing the micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to do business online.  Its target is to get 100,000 businesses to do e-commerce by 2020.

This target mobilizes government agencies from national down to local towards improving Internet infrastructure and ease of doing business. Private sector e-commerce stakeholders are pro-actively partnering with the government to help meet the target.

The DigitalFilipino E-Commerce Entrepreneurs Summit, on its 8th year, has served as an important forum tackling developments in this space with relevant and emerging players. Past discussions includes the formation of the E-Commerce Intensity Index, E-Commerce Maturity Scorecard, creation of an e-commerce industry roadmap, among others. A hotspot for e-commerce advocates and digital influencers in this field.

The event aims to empower entrepreneurs, decision makers, marketers, strategists, sales managers, supply chain managers, brand managers, among others. Be one of the forums where they can evolve from change thinkers to change makers.

This event is also a fundraiser for our Certified E-Commerce Specialist, Entrepreneur, and Professional Program students. This event is part of their “e-commerce industry exposure” learning module. They are scheduled to visit Singapore and Malaysia this January 29 to February 4, 2017 to showcase their marketplace project there.

Our experience in the DTI E-Commerce Roadshow series made us realize that we lacked marketplaces to serve MSMEs in different parts of the country. This may hamper us from achieving the industry target number of enabling 100,000 businesses to do e-commerce up to 2020.

We challenge our Certified E-Commerce Specialist, Entrepreneur, and Professional Program students from Manila, Baguio, Cebu, and Davao to address this challenge by creating their own e-commerce marketplace project.

Projects are scheduled to be launched this November 2016 and be presented at the event.

In 2015, three e-commerce websites - Bigbag Fresh, Tagay.ph, and Save N' Earn Wireless - went live and continue to operate after the e-commerce program.

Manila, Cebu, Baguio, and Davao classes getting ready for the E-Commerce Entrepreneurs Summit in their area and showcasing their project in Manila, Cebu, Baguio, Davao, Singapore, and Malaysia too.
